Gokbakar is a Galatasaray congressman, and recently, he met with their new record acquisition. The meeting between the pair has been making the rounds, with the Nigerian clad in a Galatasaray training kit and Sahan wearing a Cim-Bom face cap on his casual wear. 

After posing for a photo, Osimhen humourously asked Gokbakar, “You gonna give me a role in your movies?” The comedian responded, saying, “Of course.”

The meeting has birthed conversations; one such was the opinion of football analyst Ahmet Cakar, who is sceptical of Gokbakar's intentions.

"Şahan Gökbakar is using Osimhen and Galatasaray to boost his own popularity,” he said, per GsGazette. “He's considering casting Osimhen in a comedy film. I don't think it would be appropriate for him to cast Recep İvedik."
